This is not the first recipe of this kind that I post. A while ago I shared with you the homemade herb\u00a0butter recipe<\/span><\/a><\/span>. Let me tell you, that didn’t last long! We ended up using it so often. It tastes great on grilled sandwiches, meat, fish and countless more dishes. No wonder we ran out of it pretty quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n

So I had the choice between making the same recipe again, or trying out something different. I chose the latter one, and the result was this lemon-parsley butter! They both look similar, but here it’s the lemon<\/em> that makes the difference! It adds that extra freshness that blends so well with different meals. Especially fish and vegetables. I just used it today to make a creamy asparagus soup with roasted salmon slices. So tasty!! Check back soon for this recipe!<\/span><\/p>\n

What I like most about making my own flavored\u00a0butter is the flexibility and variety that comes with it. By the time you go to a store to\u00a0find\u00a0the<\/em> one that you are looking for, you are better off investing half an hour at home creating your own personal one :)<\/span><\/p>\n
